Not fishing but out with the gun for a walk yesterday. My shoot at this time of year is usually below zero but yesterday it was 10 above. That is the height of summer for us. Crazy.

Fished Kingennie, Insch a couple of times. Also I'm a member of the Loch of Logie syndicate at Crimmond, its handy for me as its just 15 minutes from the house.
I like to get out of the house a this time of year, also do a bit of Grayling fishing on the Isla and have the odd Sea Fishing outing after the Cod.

If it's mild enough, I might try and get a day or two in stocky bashing.
There are few waters near me and to be fair I haven't bothered with them much until now, but I plan on a few for the pot - possibly.

Aw jeez, I clean forgot that my Isla ticket is still open for Grayling. I am busy until the second week of January but then I may have to drive south for the winter. Thanks Jim

I'm out with a dozen from our club on a small lake that we book every year, for the day after Boxing day.  Good time to show off or try out our prezzies. Average sized rainbow is 6lb  so I might try to get one on the 15' wafter rod to give it a strength test.
Happy Christmas all  :z18
